i'm tired of talking about the fiscal cliff. i think some of that uncertainty has held back hiring and we have to get past that. because if you're a business an you don't know what the rules of the game are, most businesses will tell you i don't even care what the level of regulation is or what the tax rate is i just need to know what the playing field is. it's that uncertainty that's holding things back. we have to take that probably into early next year before you lift that uncertainty. >> thanks so much. now to the president and the congress and the fiscal cliff. the combination of automatic tax hikes and deep federal spending cuts due to kick in january 1st. that's 24 days away. just over three weeks from now but so far negotiations to find a way around it well they've gone nowhere. we'll talk about that with a former chief of staff to president bill clinton and adviser to president obama and a founder and chairman of the center for american progress which is a washington think tank and he joins us now from our washington bu
